HP Pavilion x360 announced, an affordable touch convertible PC

HP has announced at Mobile World Congress the HP Pavilion x360. It reminds us of Lenovo’s line of YOGA machines. The Pavilion x360 features a 360-degree hinge that lets you convert the notebook to stand or tent mode, or to tablet. Use the x360 as a notebook to work, rotate into a stand to watch videos, convert into a tent to play, or transform it into a tablet to go anywhere. The starting price is $399.99, which is close to the prices of entry-level notebooks.

The Pavilion x360 is also part of HP’s announcement of the expansion of HP DataPass broadband service. Twelve countries have been added, including the United States. This means x360 owners can connect to the Internet with two years of free 3G+ or 4G mobile broadband service powered by Fogg Mobile. Customers receive up to 250 MB per month at no cost and can purchase additional monthly data packages at low rates and without a contract.

The HP Pavilion x360 is expected to be available in two colors: Brilliant Red and Smoke Silver. The Brilliant Red color will go on sale in the United States on February 26th.

DataPass is expected to be available on the HP Pavilion x360 in select regions starting this summer.

We’re looking to spend some time with the HP Pavilion x360 while we’re here at MWC, so stay tuned for our hands-on and first impressions soon. Does the HP Pavilion x360 look interesting to you? Let us know in the comments!

Lol dude I live in Bangladesh and there are notebooks which have ips displays at a lower price than this. Viewing angles really matter for me that's why. It has got nothing to do with affordability or rich vs poor shit you're talking about.
